Using artificial intelligence to implement the UN sustainable development goals at higher education institutions

International Journal of Sustainable Development & World Ecology, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 31(6), С. 726 - 745

Опубликована: Март 21, 2024

Artificial intelligence (AI) can significantly contribute to the implementation of United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by offering innovative solutions and enhancing efficiency processes aimed at achieving these goals. There is a perceived need for studies which may look connections. Against this background, paper reports on study that investigated connections between artificial UN higher education institutions. The deployed multi-methods approach. first one was bibliometric analysis publications in topic. second method used an assessment set case studies, illustrate how being among sample universities support efforts implement SDGs survey identifying current future trends. data gathered allow some trends be identified. For instance, there wide range applications AI sustainability High Education Institutions (HEI), chosen terms campus operations greening, outreach community engagement, research, teaching learning, university management. Also, has identified successful examples deployment various contexts, illustrating what are success factors them. Moreover, fact use quite widely spread, likely increase coming years, due greater demand. Finally, also poses several challenges, such as authenticity ethics (case studies), 'lack access software/materials', information technology training myself/my colleagues' (survey). Overall, offers powerful toolset accelerate enhance SDGs. By analysing vast datasets, predicting outcomes, optimising processes, providing new insights, potential address complex challenges across sectors.

Chromium Removal from Aqueous Solution Using Natural Clinoptilolite

Water, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 15(9), С. 1667 - 1667

Опубликована: Апрель 25, 2023

This work investigates the applicability of clinoptilolite, a natural zeolite, as low-cost adsorbent for removing chromium from aqueous solutions using fixed bed studies. To improve its removal performance inorganic pollutant, is pretreated with NaCl to prepare it in homoionic form Na+ before undertaking ion exchange Cr3+ solution. also evaluates if treated effluents could meet required effluent discharge standard set by legislation target pollutant. sustain cost-effectiveness wastewater treatment, spent regenerated NaOH. It was found that clinoptilolite has two-times higher Cr adsorption capacity (4.5 mg/g) than as-received (2.2 mg/g). Pretreatment enabled treat more volume (BV) (64 BV) at breakthrough point 0.5 mg/L concentration and achieve longer time (1500 min) first run, compared (32 BV; 250 min). suggests pretreatment rendered Na+. Although an initial 10 mg/L, were still unable limit less 0.05 US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
